The client initially required 58 single rooflights for a large construction project in Avon. After speaking with the Lumen technical team it was agreed that we could manufacture the skylights as large bespoke items to reduce the metalwork between each casement. This would provide the client with a greater amount of Pilkington glazing therefore increasing light within the same overall roof light dimension. The client also requested that some casements would be opening while others needed to remain fixed.

Our client wanted to achieve a specific number of casements within the overall roof light dimension. Three casements were to remain fixed whilst the two opening casements needed to operate with an electric mechanism. Due to the slim width and the long length of each casement it was decided to use the KA54/250 stroke mechanism operated with a GVL8304 control panel.

This project involved manufacturing a fixed skylight to match our conservation rooflight design. Our fixed roof light design forms a dummy casement as part of the outer framework. This allows the rooflight to have the appearance of a casement whilst reducing the amount of metalwork and slightly increases the amount of glazing.

This rooflight was part of a larger order for a residential project in Surrey. The client wished to replace a number of failing aluminium frames and had a series of large individual roof lights, some opening and some fixed. This particular skylight was located in a bedroom where the client wanted to maximise the glazing area and to provide ventilation at the push of a button, utilising the KA54/350 stroke mechanism. The design was to match our Lumen conservation range to ensure a low profile against the tiles.

These skylights were used on a barn conversion and the client wanted to introduce light through a series of slim fixed rooflights. The conservation design allows the roof light to remain flush with the roof line and remain unobtrusive to the original architecture. As with all Lumen rooflights, these incorporated Pilkington Activ self clean glass with an argon gas filled cavity and Pilkington Optitherm to increase the thermal performance.

Used on a residential property in South London these rooflights where supplied with opening casements, one of which was to be used for access. As such these were designed with gas struts on one side of each roof light. All of the opening casements are operated for daily use with our solid brass winding mechanisms.

These rooflights were supplied to a client in Scotland for a residential project. Due to the large size of each opening casement, the roof lights were fitted with KA54 electric actuators. As these were produced as bespoke items, we were able to fit special brackets to accommodate the actuator within the American oak frame of the rooflight.
